Belarus chaos: Russian and Serbian armed forces to take part in military exercises as anti-Lukashenko protests continue

External forces will arrive in Belarus on 10 September

Belarusian, Russian and Serbian military forces will take part in joint military exercises in Belarus, the RIA news agency cited Belarus’ defence ministry as saying on Tuesday.

It said the Russian and Serbian forces would arrive in Belarus from 10 to 15 September, without elaborating. Belarus has been racked by daily mass protests since its president, Alexander Lukashenko, claimed victory in a contested election last month.
